Building a Hacker-Resilient Network

There will never be 100% guaranteed network security, this means ensuring your network is hacker-resilient is not an optional goal

What we mean is a cybersecurity-resilient approach to network management. That may sound like a simple objective to achieve, but given the average enterprise network includes both hardware and software prone to vulnerabilities that can be exploited—along with human beings that can also be exploited—it’s harder than you might think. As soon as you step back and contemplate the scale of the attack surface within most organizations, you start to understand the scale of the task involved in defending it. Not least as the bad guys would appear to have the upper hand in terms of both threat evolution and the windows of opportunity to execute those threats.
